Opened my Globe and Mail this moring, and found that Fred Lum has been on the Staff at the paper for 40 years.

Fred is of interest to the Analogue side of Photography as he managed to have a Film Photo, complete with the shape of the Aperture Plate, and Black edges published ever Month or so. the effect is rather eye Catching, and reminds folks that Not all Photos are Digital even today.

One of the photos reproduced in the article is a proof sheet on Kodak Tri-X of author Margaret Atwood, (Handmaids Tale) form a portarit sitting takenfor an interview article. I belive that this link is one of the Three Globe articles I am allowed to "Gift" in a month. SO I will cross my Fingers that it will work.

Fred has commented here on Photrio from time to time in the past.

Worked for me. Thanks for this. I think photojournalists, past and present, and their work, is not recognized enough in Canada. It's nice to have articles like this that does.
 
Thanks for sharing this.
 
I was told I could share 3 articles, But I am not sure if that is one article 3 times or Not. (pay walls complicate life)

I wonder if the share is limited to Canada? But one person who reported sucess is in eupope.

Dunno how it works, but this is what I got:

Initially it says "Gifted article loading" or something along those lines, with the content appearing. But within a second it's replaced by the paywall message.
I think the publisher took measures against sharing with an unlimited audience: I assume they block access once the article has been accessed more than a certain number of times using the gift-link.

Ah, that's the way it goes. These media have to somehow make a living.
